What we've been up to

I am posting some random pictures from the past two weeks. Last week, the girls were on Spring Break but we really didn't do anything exciting. It was nice not to have anywhere to be. The girls have been to three Aggie baseball games so far this season and they seem to really like going....I'm not sure if it is to watch baseball or to eat popcorn though :)


I didn't get a picture of Addyson at the game so here is one of her in her outfit of choice one day (puppy dog t-shirt, tutu and cowboy boots!)

Brooklyn and Addyson both had doctor appointments recently. Addyson had a follow up appointment with her orthopedist and got a good report. Brooklyn had a follow up appointment with her ENT and unfortunately did not get a good report. We are going back again next week but it looks like she will be having surgery in the next few weeks to have another set of tubes put in her ears and have her adenoids and tonsils taken out. Poor girl can't seem to get well but you would never know it by that beautiful smile! She is such a trooper!

While we were in Houston for Addyson's appointment, my mom and I took the girls to the zoo.



We have had some beautiful weather lately and we spend A LOT of time outside. Here are some pictures from a trip to the park.

Cowboy Day

The girls had Cowboy Day at school on Thursday. I think they make pretty cute little cowgirls! Addyson was not crazy about the hat but she did wear it for a short time. There were lots of fun activities set up for the kids to do. The girls had a great time riding horses, throwing horseshoes, roasting marshmellows, and playing games.

Little Cowgirls

We took the girls to the Houston Rodeo on Friday and went through the children's area and rode a few rides at the kids carnival. It seemed like the perfect time because they have been studying cowboys at school and next week they have Cowboy Day. The girls really enjoyed seeing all the animals. They got to go through the petting zoo, ride tractors, see baby chicks hatching out of eggs, pet bunnies, and ride some rides.

It is hard to believe that it is already March! it seems like we have been super busy but having so much fun! I love taking the girls to do new things and I hope that the beautiful weather continues.

SNOW!






The girls got to experience another first yesterday....snow! We didn't get as much as some other parts of town but the girls were excited to see it and play in it. Caitlyn thought it was neat but didn't want to stay out long.....It was too cold!

We went to the carnival and rode three rides

We have had a carnival set up at the mall for the last week. Every time we drove by, the girls would start shouting "I ride! I ride!" from the back seat. So Sunday, we finally took them to the carnival and of course they loved it! They were only tall enough to ride three rides but they didn't seem to care.....We just rode them over and over!

They also got to play a game and pick a prize. They all choose giant blow up monkeys that are as big as they are!

I wanted to post some pictures from the baseball game but I only had my iphone and it was dark so the pictures didn't turn out very good. I'm sure we will be going to more games though because the girls really seemed to like it! Have a great week!

Guess who....

Is







FINALLY







rockin some Pigtails!!!!






I had to look back at this post and it was a little less than a year ago that Caitlyn had enough hair for me to put it in pigtails. Poor Addyson just really got jipped in the hair department! But she makes up for it in her BIG personality! This girl is constantly cracking me up. Just like the girls' personalities, their hair is very different. Caitlyn's hair is now almost half way down her back but it is super fine and has some curl to it. Brooklyn's hair is super thick and kind of kinky. I almost have to put it up every day because it is so thick! Addy's hair is growing alot in the back but not as much on top. I think it will probably be more like Caitlyn's but maybe a little thicker. They are all very blonde but three different shades. With three girls in the house I can only imagine the hair drama we will have!

We took the girls to the Aggie baseball game last night so I will post pics soon! They had a blast!

Sugar and Spice

The girls had their Valentines Day party at school yesterday. They decorated cookies and filled up on as much sugar as possible before it was time to go home and attempt to take a nap after all the excitement. Here are a few pics I took of them working hard on their yummy treats!







This is a picture I got of Caitlyn and Parker. I think the girls all have a crush on him....they talk about him all the time!


HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!!!
